The blindfold lifts As I wake From a charming dream Adrift on a lonely path; An irresolute stroll As the illusion fades Against the hike The madman tumbles Wings tied Into an ocean Faced with demons Of his own creation Slave in chains Now I walk, How I know not, Down this road Passing through this place: The corpse of a familiar world Exposed to the cold Expecting a warm embrace That never finds me I greet these souls Shadows from some past life Familiar, yet far too strange Still lost in their dreams In vain, I scream Crawling through the pain With my eyes set On a sun that lies Fleeing from me As I make my way forwards Fight! Fight! With all might mine Burning the horizon For a light That may never shine.

The Road to Nowhere
The blindfold lifts As I wake From a charming dream Adrift on a lonely path; An irresolute stroll As the illusion fades Against the hike The madman tumbles Wings tied Into an ocean Faced with demons Of his own creation Slave in chains Now I walk, How I know not, Down this road Passing through this place: The corpse of a familiar world Exposed to the cold Expecting a warm embrace That never finds me I greet these souls Shadows from some past life Familiar, yet far too strange Still lost in their dreams In vain, I scream Crawling through the pain With my eyes set On a sun that lies Fleeing from me As I make my way forwards Fight! Fight! With all might mine Burning the horizon For a light That may never shine.
